The navamsa, the ninth divisional chart: each sign divided into nine parts of 3°20' each. After the rashi chart this is the one that matters most. It is read for marriage and partnership, for dharma, and as a check on the rashi chart - a planet strong in D1 but weak here is generally taken as promising more than it delivers. A planet in the same sign in both charts is vargottama and held especially strong. Returns the same flat shape as /api/astro/planet-positions/: the planets as a list in traditional order with `name`, longitude, sign, nakshatra, pada and house on each, plus the ascendant and the ayanamsa applied. Send a date and a place; `ayanamsa` defaults to LAHIRI and all 48 are accepted. The chart is fixed by the route, so a `chart_name` in the body is ignored - this endpoint cannot return anything but the chart it is named for. /api/astro/chart/ is where to go for the other 24 divisions.
